oooh Damnation Alley looks right up my alley.

Also, why does everyone say enemy mine was this terrible movie? It was FREAKING awesome. Its one of my favorites actually.

LOL

Thank you!

a reply to: VoidHawk

I havent considered that.

You may have a point. Thank you!

I know I'm throwing far off subject ones but my other post makes me think of dale and tucker vs. Evil. Good stuff there. Give it a try.

Donnie Darko....trust me.
Second line.

It is also the only manga I have ever read cause after I watched the animated portion of it I was hooked.
So if you watch it and need more know you can always turn to the manga starting at chpt 34

With all of our suggestions, I hope you return later and post some reviews of them for us to know if it was worth our while.

LOL

HELLS YEAH!

One of the greatest.

a reply to: Krakatoa

Will do.

I am starting to find them online now. If they are worth it I will download and post a review.

A friend of mine spent many months persuading me to read those books (I'm not a natural book worm), but honestly, they really do put the movies to shame. The Alistair Reynolds stuff will blow your mind!

Robinson Crusoe on Mars
The Angry Red Planet

a reply to: Krakatoa

I have seen angry planet, about a prison planet but I havent seen angry red planet. Cool,

This list is starting to come together.

Thank you all again.

As one poster pointed out books are fun too. And tv shows, from all eras.

The Caves of Steel by Asimov is brilliant. I was never able to finish The Naked Sun which is the sequel.

Also oldschool pulp fiction with short stories and small novels can be found if they're in public domain which many are.

The Signal - 2014. With Laurence Fishburne.

It had a very small budget but the result was quite good, the pacing is kind of slow for the first half but the ending was incredible. Highly recommended.

a reply to: IpoopThere4IAM

Yeah I liked it. It reminded me of Akira. I was surprised it didnt get more of a following. Its not a bad movie production wise as well.

a reply to: Yeahkeepwatchingme

The Caves of Steel is probably something I will like. Thanks!

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan

You don't have to be a huge fan of the ST world to enjoy this film. It's a high quality sci fi film with a great soundtrack , action, dialogue and some over the top acting.

BSG: Reboot 2004-2009

The first two seasons are as good as anything I have ever watched. It lost it's way a bit but I think that is more a reflection of how good it started off and how that may have been unsustainable.

I too am a huge sci-fi addict and have seen damn near everything out there... so I'm always on the search to find ones that might have slipped past my radar.

Here's some fairly new sci-fi's I've watched recently that aren't too well known (mainly independent films), but I was surprised to discover that they were actually pretty decent movies:

- Snowpiercer
- Cargo (subtitled but worth the watch)
- Frost (subtitled again)
- 5 Shells
- Europa Report
- End of The World (2013 canadian unknown movie)
- The Divide
- The Darkest Hour
- Iron Sky
- The Lost Future
- Dead Air
- Before The Fall
- The Man From Earth (more philisophical than sci-fi but it's a wild storyline)

Æon Flux is cool and somewhat unknown. It's an animated TV series from the early 90's originally from MTV's show Liquid Television. It's worth a watch.

I saw one recently called 'Time Crimes.' I was surprised at how good it was for' a low budget indie. Well worth a watch.
'Guardians of the Galaxy' isn't out on DVD yet, but it is not to be missed. I saw it twice in the theater.

Try "The Hidden" if you haven't already. It's a bit campy, but interesting. Stars Kyle MacLachlin and Michael Nouri.
